I will be closing my website for maternity leave and am cleaning out all inventory. Many items are marked down already! I'm now extending this sale to the public. I've got a free shipping special, many items marked down plus a pattern sale. To read all the details and how to redeem these specials, please go here: http://www.homespunfromtheheart.com/store/Default.asp

I'm closing in 2 weeks, June 13th and will reopen sometime in mid-August with brand new products, patterns and new kits too. I really want to enjoy some time with my new little one when she gets here! And I'm still working on getting 'ready' or 'nesting' like the little robin is doing on our deck (as my hubby says).

Even while I'm closed, my epatterns will still be for sale at www.patternmart.com - I'll post links on my website.

What a wonderful weekend I had!!! I was blessed to spend a long weekend with 13 other amazing, fun and super sweet women out in Indiana. We are all friends through PrimMart.com and planned a Girlfriend's Getaway trip. Here's a picture of the whole gang shopping out in Browne County, we chatted up a store owner and met up with another friend who came in for the day to see all of us. I tell ya, sometimes I wonder how lucky I could be?! These are friends I met on the internet - that sounds so strange to think of meeting friends online; but they are some of my bestest friends I have. We laughed so hard all weekend, we also talked and played Bunco and did so much shopping. Even tho I didn't get enough sleep, I felt so energized because I was with my friends and had some time away.

I also have to say... that I did miss a BUNCH of YOU who couldn't come this year - you know who you are :)

Now these ladies also have the most generous hearts!! Can you believe they suprised me and Amanda with a baby shower? WOW! I was so overwhelmed at their kindness - I had no idea they were planning it either. I received the most beautiful gifts of clothing, lots of essentials we will use and gift certificates too. I am so spoiled, I love you all for thinking of us this weekend!!!

OH and my roomie Val made me a diaper cake! I've never seen one in person and wow, she loaded it with so many things we will use. She also made me a scrapbook album, it is so sweet, I can't wait to fill it up with pictures!

Okay so for those who want a 'belly pic' - well here it is. heehee! I'm now down to 9 weeks left to go til my due date. I can't imagine how big this belly's going to get by then. I am still giggling at many things that happened over the weekend. This sure was a trip to remember!
